Pakistan is yet to accord MFN status to India. During the 7 th round of talks on Commercial and Economic Cooperation between Commerce Secretaries of India and Pakistan held in Islamabad on September 20- 21, 2012 it was agreed, inter-alia that Pakistan would transition fully to MFN (non- discriminatory) status for India by December, 2012. Pakistan, however, did not adhere to the timelines. The Commerce Ministers of India and Pakistan met on 18 th January, 2014 on the sidelines of the 5 th SAARC Business Leaders Conclave held at New Delhi. Both Ministers reaffirmed the commitment of their Governments to expeditiously establish normal trading relations and in this context Pakistan to provide Non-Discriminatory Market Access (NDMA) to India. In the meeting between Prime Ministers of India and Pakistan on 27 th May 2014, it was stated that the two countries could move immediately towards full trade normalization on the basis of the September 2012 roadmap worked out between the Commerce Secretaries of both countries. Progress in trade normalization would depend on the decision taken by Pakistan with regard to granting MFN Status to India. (d) If MFN status is granted by Pakistan to India, it will facilitate direct bilateral trade. This would lead to economic gains for both countries. ***** GOVERNMENT OF INDIA MINISTRY OF COMMERCE & INDUSTRY (DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE) LOK SABHA STARRED QUESTION NO. 190 TO BE ANSWERED ON 5 TH DECEMBER, 2014 ANTI-DUMPING DUTY ON IMPORT OF SOLAR CELLS *190. SHRI RAVNEET SINGH: Will the Minister of COMMERCE & INDUSTRY ( ´ÉÉÉÊhÉVªÉ A´ÉÆ =tÉÉäMÉ àÉÆjÉÉÒ ) be pleased to state: a) whether imposition of anti-dumping duties on import of Solar Cells, Modules or Panels, thin films from certain countries has been recommended and if so, the details of the countries of imports of such goods, country-wise; b) the quantum of anti-dumping duties recommended; c) whether the Government has received any representation/demands from the domestic industry for lifting the said ban; and d) if so, the details along with the reaction of the Government thereto and the present status thereof? ANSWER वाHण य एवं उयोग रा य मंWी (Lora= izHkkj ) ( ीमती Cनमला सीतारमण ) THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF COMMERCE AND INDUSTRY (INDEPENDENT CHARGE) (SMT. NIRMALA SITHARAMAN) a) to d): A Statement is laid on the Table of the House. ********* STATEMENT REFERRED TO IN REPLY TO PARTS (a) TO (d) OF LOK SABHA STARRED QUESTION NO. 190 FOR ANSWER ON 5TH DECEMBER, 2014 REGARDING “ANTI-DUMPING DUTY ON IMPORT OF SOLAR CELLS” (a) : Yes, Madam. Directorate General of Anti-Dumping and Allied Duties (DGAD) under Department of Commerce recommended imposition of anti-dumping duties on imports of Solar Cells whether or not assembled partially or fully in Modules or Panels or on glass or some other suitable substrates, originating in or exported from China PR, Chinese Taipei, Malaysia and United States of America (USA) vide Notification No. 14/5/2012-DGAD dated 22 nd May, 2014. (b) : The quantum of anti-dumping duties recommended is given below :- Sl. No. Name of country Duty recommended 1 China PR US$ 0.64 to 0.81 per Watt 2 Chinese Taipei US$ 0.59 per Watt 3 Malaysia US$ 0.62 per Watt 4 United States of America US$ 0.11 to 0.48 per Watt c) : Yes, Madam. d): The Government had received a letter dated 8 th August, 2014 from Indian Solar Manufacturers Association (ISMA), highlighting the measures taken by Ministry of New and Renewable Energy for development of solar energy which included the announcement made in Rajya Sabha on 6 th August, 2014 regarding setting up of 2000 MW of solar power projects with cells and modules made in India. Subsequently, ISMA vide their letter dated 8 th August, 2014 had withdrawn their petition filed in January 2012 for imposition of anti-dumping duty on imported solar cells and modules from China PR, Chinese Taipei, Malaysia and United States of America (USA). The Government decided not to impose anti-dumping duty on imported solar cells and modules from China PR, Chinese Taipei, Malaysia and United States of America (USA) for the following reasons:- i) Development of solar power in the country depends on the price at which power can be supplied to the distribution utilities. Major expansion is possible only if price matches grid parity and can sustain without Government subsidies. Anti-dumping duty will make this task difficult. ii) The current domestic manufacturing capacity for solar cells is inadequate to meet the current demand and it certainly cannot meet the expansion plans. iii) Many State Governments, who are owners of distribution companies, expressed their opposition to imposition of anti-dumping duties because of the high price of the domestic cells and modules and their inability to buy expensive power. Without active participation of State Governments it is not possible to develop solar power in the country. iv) More than 3500 MW of solar power projects are under implementation or have been awarded. They will all go into litigation if anti-dumping duty is suddenly imposed. v) Anti-dumping duty on four countries will not benefit the domestic manufacturers as imports from remaining countries will continue. We will be just replacing cheap imports with expensive imports as domestic cells are costlier than cells from other left out countries. vi) ISMA vide their letter dated 8th August, 2014 had withdrawn their petition filed in January 2012 for imposition of anti-dumping duty on imported solar cells and modules Taking all facts into consideration, in the larger public interest, it was decided not to accept the recommendation dated 22 nd May 2014 of DGAD regarding imposition of Anti-dumping duty on solar cells and modules being imported from the subject countries. ***** GOVERNMENT OF INDIA MINISTRY OF COMMERCE & INDUSTRY (DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE) LOK SABHA UNSTARRED QUESTION NO. 2078 TO BE ANSWERED ON 5TH DECEMBER, 2014 REVIVAL OF EXPORT INTEREST SUBSIDY SCHEME 2078.
